The VPF-710 Visibility sensor provides high
quality visibility measurement in a compact and
robust package.
The open design of the sensor head allows the
free passage of air ensuring the visibility
measurement is as accurate as possible in all
conditions. Other features of the design ensure
the correct response to all precipitation types as
well as smoke and dust.
The VPF-710 is highly resistant to disturbance
from nearby light sources such as aviation
obstacle warning lights, both constant and
flashing. Even the latest generation of IR obstacle
lights are not a problem.

overall reliability and longevity. An optional
interface to the ALS-2 Ambient Light Sensor
makes the VPF-710 particularly suited for use in
Runway Visual Range (RVR) applications.
As standard the sensor is fitted with an extensive
self-test monitoring capability which includes
window contamination monitoring and output
compensation. Summary self-test information is
included in the standard data message with full
status information available on demand.
The VPF-710 can be AC mains or low voltage DC
powered and hood heaters are available for use
in areas prone to snow.
